Maral & Lupita: A Celebration of Friendship

By Maral Pushian Sultanian, PhD., LMFT and Judith A. Verduzco, LCSW, MPA

It’s the first day of fourth grade! Lupita and her family have just emigrated from Mexico and settled into their new home in the United States of America. Maral, a bit of a know-it-all, looks across the playground and notices the new girl in town. What follows is the birth of a friendship, the merging of cultures, and all that comes with these sorts of things! Throughout the pages of Maral & Lupita: A Celebration of Friendship, readers will find how friendships are born, nurtured, challenged, and celebrated.
